Which is fine if your ISP allows it (I do not have my own permanent mail

Maybe I'm missing the obvious here, but what the fsck is it about US
Politics that "even vaguely relates" to Linux? Please, humor me, this
bemused Linux user is eager to learn...
I agree that "you post messages to a list for the benefit of that list
seeing and responding".
BUT
What makes you think that the Mandrake Linux Newbie list members (many of
whom are from other countries) are even remotely interested in US politics?
If I want Linux information then I sign up to a Linux list. If I want that
political crap I'll sign up to a US politics list.

Ozz.
